Bitter Truth

Quit the dreams in films lo kin of grim,its all reached the brim. Tears and fears don't discriminate. Fancy cars and dresses,the faces portray Dirty linen they wash on a hidden tray. You strived to prosper And yet died like a pauper Wild indeed was your life in the fast lane, Its now all gone,like crashed plane. Autopsy;A failed pursuit of fame. Darling sisters who's eyes are after the diamond ring, 'Just wait a little longer,its now at the border,he says' A lie or two he's said,waiting to get you laid. 'I just talked to the architect,he says' All the sweet talk is now plain. Alas!,Here you come again,in another life The Movies still air with flair This time bigger than they were, And yet again the diamond ring has lured a sister. It is 'truth',not 'truths',so are you listening to his second truth?
